Yes, Emerald is not under construction.
The rest on your link are under construction but site has no data on height or that matter any details or diagram on those projects. But then Skyscraper does not have data or diagrams on many residential and office high-rises in Edmonton.
It looks like the MacLaren is pretty much complete. One of the storefronts along 102nd Avenue is being temporarily occupied by a Flannel Foxes popup shop. While I have some reservation's about the Buena Vista Apartments facade reconstruction, I can't deny that its nice to see it on the corner again;
That tower had me thinking of Barad-dûr, the tower from Lord of the Rings!
As for the original "ziggurat" design, this is probably the first I've ever seen. And thank God this didn't get built.
What I *do* remember that prior to the current city hall's design, Gene Dub came up an earlier proposal during the late 1980s which had something like 4 cones shaped like volcanoes (they were actually meant to represent teepees). I remember seeing a model of the original proposal with cones on display at Southgate Mall. And I also remember reading/hearing how unpopular that design was with the public. Apparently, it was so unpopular that Dub had to change it to the current one with the two pyramids.
